Alignment to Brigada Eskwela Theme 5% 10%
Creativity and Innovation 10% 10%
Increment of Resources and Volunteers 10% 5%
CRITERIA:

A. SCOPE OF WORK 35%

- based on the school BE plan and physical facilities repair and maintenance
needs assessment such as Repair Works, Maintenance Works, New
Improvements and Beautification/Landscaping/Learners Kiosk Installation.
- Annual Implementation Plan as basis (subject to approval)
- Computation: percentage of work completed (PWC) multiplied by 35%

PWC x 35%
CRITERIA:

A. SCOPE OF WORK 35%

• BE Form 2: Quantified, specific (i.e. 200 chairs to be repaired, 9 CL roofings to be
repainted, 3 CRs with repair needs to be fixed, 4 door knobs to be replaced)
• BE Form 2: based on BE Form 1
• FQA 1: School A reflected 5 targets in BE Form2, School B reflected 10. Both have an
accomplishment rate of 100%. Will they receive the same 35 points?
ANS: Yes. However, in case of a tie, A the number of assessed needs for
repair, replacement, repainting in BE Form 1 will be compared with
the targets reflected in BE Form 2 (in favor of the school which did
not “play-it-safe” ) and B counter-checked with the amount generated
• FQA 2: Which months are included in the computation of generated resources?
ANS: January 1, 2018 to June 1, 2018
CRITERIA:
B. DIVERSE VOLUNTEER PARTICIPATION 25%
a. Parent volunteers (PV) – 15%
Computation:
parent volunteer turn-out (PVT) x 15%
targeted parent volunteer (TPV)
target parent volunteer = number of enrolment X agreed* percentage up to 200%.
* case to case basis – depends on the percentage of desired increase from 2017 PVT
• Example: School A within poblacion with 2,000 enrolment agreed to target 55% of
parents. TPV = 2000 x 0.55 = 1,100

• If the PVT is 900, PV = 900 / 1,100 x .15 = 12.27 points
